Aliens: Colonial Marines – Kick Ass trailer

Aliens Colonial Marines
SEGA has released a new trailer for Gearbox’s upcoming Aliens game, Aliens: Colonial Marines. This trailer focuses on the game’s story and showcases how badass marines can actually be. It looks cool, though we kind of wonder whether acid will be as deadly as it was in all previous games (especially since there are a lot of QTE in which we can almost taste the acid blood of the aliens). Aliens: Colonial Marines is planned for a February 12th release on PC, X360 and PS3. Enjoy! Continue reading Aliens: Colonial Marines – Kick Ass trailer

THQ Closes, SEGA Acquires Relic, Koch Media Gets Volition, Vigil Games Goes Down

THQ v2

Man, what an exciting afternoon it was. Yes, unfortunately THQ has been shut down and it’s really sad witnessing such a publisher going down. However, most of the company’s assets have been succesfully acquired by other companies, so there is nothing to worry about. Unless of course you’re interested in a new Darksiders 2 as Vigil Games was not sold to anyone and if THQ does not find a seller in the coming months, the studio will most probably close.

Aliens: Colonial Marines – PC System Requirements Revealed + New Trailer

Aliens Colonial Marines
SEGA and Gearbox today unveiled the official PC system requirements for their upcoming aliens game, Aliens: Colonial Marines. According to the publisher and the developer, PC gamers will at least need a dual-core CPU with 2GB of RAM and 20GB of free hard disk space. Quite surprisingly – and contrary to Aliens vs Predator – Aliens: Colonial Marines won’t support any DX11 features, as it seems that it is a DX9-only game. Otherwise, Windows XP would not be included in the Recommended specs. Here is hoping that Gearbox will surprise us. The good news here is that the game also supports Windows XP. Aliens: Colonial Marines is planned for a February 12th release on PC, X360 and PS3, and you can view its PC system requirements – as well as a new TV commercial for it – below!

Sonic the Hedgehog Gets A Cool Fan Film – AVGN Makes An Appearance

Sonic
Okay Sonic fans, get ready for a nice surprise. We’ve seen in the past some awful fan films that were based on SEGA’s mascot, Sonic. Most of you thought that a proper Sonic movie was not possible, right? Well, you were partially right. BlueCoreStudios released today its fan-made Sonic film, in which AVGN makes a cameo appearance. Sonic looks F’ing incredible, though the whole acting is kind of meh. Also, dialogs sound louder than the environmental and special sound effects, making the whole film feel a bit cheap and unprofessional (this can be easily spotted on the Sonic fight at 10:30 mark). Still, this is way better than what we got in the past, so make sure to give it a go! Continue reading Sonic the Hedgehog Gets A Cool Fan Film – AVGN Makes An Appearance

Aliens: Colonial Marines – Story Trailer

Aliens Colonial Marines
SEGA has released a new trailer for Aliens: Colonial Marines that focuses on the game’s storyline. I seriously hope that this new Aliens game will surprise me pleasantly, though I’m a bit disappointed from what I’ve already seen. Lots of scripted events everywhere and an awful AI make this a title that needs further polishing before rolling it out. Let’s hope that Gearbox will not disappoint us on this. Enjoy! Continue reading Aliens: Colonial Marines – Story Trailer

Aliens: Colonial Marines – New Screenshots

Aliens Colonial Marines
SEGA has released a new set of screenshots for Gearbox’s upcoming Aliens game. Aliens: Colonial Marines promises to bring new levels of bone-chilling suspense and adrenaline-filled action to the renowned franchise. Unfortunately, from what we’ve seen so far, this new Aliens game might not be what true fans have been waiting for, especially due to the bad AI and the underwhelming combat mechanics. Let’s hope that Gearbox will be able to polish things before the game’s release. Enjoy! Continue reading Aliens: Colonial Marines – New Screenshots
